> Governments topple communication rights (HBF)
> 23 July 2003. The Intersessional Meeting in Paris finally brought the
> Right to Communicate on the agenda of the WSIS process. Whereas
> originally communication rights had been debated only within Civil
> Society, the Paris meeting forced governments to take a position on the
> issue and highlighted communication rights as a central theme of
> conflict. In a working group, which was established to come to an
> agreement on the issue, several delegations blocked the concept of
> communication rights and only accepted weaker terms such as "freedom to
> information".
